NCCAT
The North Carolina Center for the Advancement of Teaching
"An Experience to Remember"
The mission of the North Carolina Center of the Advancement of Teaching is to recognize the state's outstanding career teachers by providing renewal experiences which will encourage them to remain in the teaching profession. The Center is dedicated exclusively to the advancement of teaching as an art and as a profession.
Seminar topics embrace the arts, humanities and the sciences. Seminars are specifically structured to provide both intellectual and experiential activities, to encourage dialogue among teachers and presenters, and to allow teachers to become learners.To learn more about NCCAT go to The Center.
I have been fortunate enough to have been chosen to attend an NCCAT seminar twice in my NC teaching career and there is not a more wonderful experience than getting to meet other educators from across our state, being on the learning end of the spectrum for a while, and being treated like a VIP! And all in a most beautiful and relaxing setting in our North Carolina mountains. It leaves one with a feeling of renewal, as was the original intent of the program and a wish to make learning just as momentous for the young people whose lives we touch.
